I'm sorry I haven't updated for awhile I've been busy but thanks for whoever is sticking with this story.
Chapter 20
Clark and Bruce finally calmed down. Clark still felt that Calvin had the right to know, but Bruce didn't think so. Diana and Chloe were caught in the middle of this drama; they both wanted to tell Calvin what they discovered but they knew he would go over the edge. They all agreed not to tell him for the time being. Diana hated lying to her boyfriend though. Their relationship was based on trust and by lying to him she broke that trust which hurt her.
Everyone turned around to see a nurse coming in. She smiled at them and kindly asked them to leave. They all thought she was nice and at least it wasn't Spencer checking on Clark's wife so the three left Clark so he could be with her for a little bit. He kissed her on the forehead and whispered something in her ear. He was about to leave when he swore he heard whimpering. He looked over at Lois. Clark started walking towards her when the nurse stopped him.
"What are you doing?" the nurse asked.
"I could have sworn I heard my wife whimpering," Clark said looking at the nurse suspiciously.
"Look, Mr. Kent, I'm telling you I didn't hear anything. Now please, let me do my job," the nurse said.
"Fine but if you do anything to her I will find out," Clark said as left the room and closed the door, "Watch her for me?" he asked the bodyguard.
The bodyguard nodded. Clark turned to Chloe, Bruce, and Diana and they all walked toward Calvin's room. Clark stopped suddenly. He could have sworn he heard his name being called and it sounded desperate. He shook his head; it couldn't be her Clark thought as he continued walking.
Calvin lied down on his bed. He called his people but they told him just to calm down and to think about the consequences if he went with the plan. He was angry. Ever since his sister was raped he had looked everywhere for the guy. Now he was here in Smallville running around pretending to be a doctor. He was also hurt that his friends were not going to tell him especially his girlfriend. He was so deep in thought that he didn't hear the group come in.
He looked up. His eyes turned an icy blue color seeing his friends. Diana walked up to his bed and gave him a long hug.
Still hugging him but not too tightly because of his wound she said, "You really gave me another scare this morning."
He closed his eyes, "I'm fine. Like I told you before, I'm not going anywhere."
Even though he did not want to, he broke the embrace and got off the bed. He looked at her, she seemed hurt by the gesture but he ignored it. He looked at Bruce, Chloe, and Clark, "So did you guys find anything in the papers?"
"Just records," Chloe said. She wasn't lying she just didn't tell the whole truth.
Calvin's icy blue eyes stared at her pleading with Chloe to just come out with it. She looked at the floor and Calvin sighed in frustration.
"Did you find anything else?"
"No," Clark said. He hated lying especially to the man who risked his life to get those papers.
Calvin nodded, "Are you sure, because I can take a look at them."
"No!" everyone said.
Calvin chuckled and closed the door, "Why, what are you not telling me?"
"Nothing. If we find something, I promise we will tell you," Bruce said. He did not want to lie to his best friend but it was the best for everyone.
Diana stood up from the bed after composing herself and went to stand next to Chloe, "He's right, Calvin, there was nothing that was important."
That was the last straw for Calvin, "You're telling me that fact that you found my sister's attacker is not important!"
Everyone in the room was surprised at his outburst. Calvin nodded, "You guys thought I wouldn't find out? Well, think again!"
He turned to Bruce, "H-how could you do that to me, man, you're supposed to be my best friend."
Bruce didn't say anything he just shook his head. Calvin nodded his head and bit his lip. He turned to the love of his life and whispered, "Why did you lie to me, Diana, and act like everything was okay?"
Tears filled Diana's eyes as she shook her head, "I'm sorry."
He backed away from them, "You know I am sick and tired of people telling me that they are sorry! You guys aren't sorry so don't give me that B.S.!"
Calvin stumbled a little bit. Clark and Bruce rushed to him but he pushed both of them away. Clark was shocked by the man's strength.
"Calvin, I know how it feels to lose someone. I lost of two of them remember."
Calvin shook his head, "You say you know how I feel, but you don't feel anything, Bruce, you have noneā¦"
"Yes, I do, Cal!" Bruce said his anger getting the best of him. He shoved Calvin against the wall, "I know how it feels to lose your loved ones right in front you!"
Bruce let go of him, emotions taking over him, "If I could find the people who killed my parents, I would make them pay."
Calvin pushed him, "Then why the hell won't you let me make Spencer pay?"
"Because I don't want you to be a killer!"
"What if I am!"
"What are you talking about?"
"Every damn night I have dreams about my sister's attacker and every damn time I want to punch the crap out of him until I see his blood on my hands!" He started crying, " U-until he b-begs for mercy asking me put him out of his misery!"
"You're not a killer," Bruce said, "Not you!"
Calvin shook his head and walked to the door. No one stopped him from leaving. Bruce walked to the wall and punched it. He was angry with himself for letting this happen.
Chloe comforted Diana as Clark walked out of the room hoping to find Calvin. He walked to the parking lot but he was nowhere to be found.
Clark walked back in to the hospital stopping at Lois' door. Again he thought he heard whimpering and the sound of his name being called. He walked in the room. His eyes widened when he saw who was in the room. "What are you doing here?" Clark said, anger evident in his voice.
The general stood up, "I came here to talk to you."
